Rate My Professor Noritaka Matsuo

Matsuo has made significant contributions through peer-reviewed publications on collagen gene regulation and related topics. Notable works include 'Collagen XXIV (Col24a1) gene expression is a specific marker of osteoblast differentiation and bone formation' in Connective Tissue Research (2008), 'CREB/AP1 protein complexes regulate transcription of the collagen XXIV gene (Col24a1) in osteoblasts' in the Journal of Biological Chemistry (2006), 'Pro-α3(V) collagen chain is expressed in bone and its basic N-terminal peptide adheres to osteosarcoma cells' in Matrix Biology (2005), 'The transcription factor CCAAT-binding factor CBF/NF-Y and two repressors regulate the core promoter of the human pro-α3(V) collagen gene (COL5A3)' in the Journal of Biological Chemistry (2004), 'Identification of a functional CBF-binding CCAAT-like motif in the core promoter of the mouse pro-α1(V) collagen gene (Col5a1)' in Matrix Biology (2004), 'p38 MAPK mediates the expression of type I collagen induced by TGF-β2 in human retinal pigment epithelial cells ARPE-19' in Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science (2004), and 'The transcription factor CCAAT-binding factor CBF/NF-Y regulates the proximal promoter activity in the human α1(XI) collagen gene (COL11A1)' in the Journal of Biological Chemistry (2003). Earlier publications address tea polyphenols' inhibitory effects on chemical mediator release from rat peritoneal exudate cells in Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry (2000) and related studies from the 1990s.
